AAA Bail Bonds
What is the purpose of a Bail Bond?
The purpose of a Bail Bond is to guarantee to the court that the person being released on the bond will make all of their necessary court appearances and complete their case.
What is a Cosigner?
A co-signer which is often times a friend or relative, will sign a contract with the bonding company insuring financial responsibility should the said defendant fail to appear for any & all court dates. Should the defendant fail to appear in court, the co-signer will need to turn the defendant into the bonding company to be surrendered, or have the case reset.

What is the Process?
Once a person is arrested, they must be booked. This process may take as little as forty-five minutes to several hours. Once a judge sets the amount of the bond, the person also known as the "defendant", may post bail and be released until an arraignment hearing date is set. A bond is designed to guarantee said defendant’s appearance in court. The bonding company guarantees to the court that they will pay the total amount of the bond should the defendant fail to appear for court. When posting a bond with a bonding company, a co-signer or indemnity is required. A co-signer or indemnity which is often times a friend or relative, will sign a contract with the bonding company insuring financial responsibility should the said defendant fail to appear for any and all court dates. This obligation does not end until the court has exonerated the bonding company from the case. Should the defendant fail to appear in court, the co-signer will need to turn the defendant into the bonding company to be surrendered. If the defendant absconds, the co-signer must pay the full amount of the bond. The bonding company will then forward the amount to the courts. Once the co-signer or indemnity has signed a contract with the bail bonding company, the bail agent will prepare the necessary paperwork for the defendant’s release. You may co-sign by fax or in person at our office. Once the paperwork has taken place in the jail, the defendant is then released.
